Jimjim Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 Heya all Been i awile since i posted in this section, I would love to get another lab but only from a registered breeder and with papers, my first lab was from the paper i feel my dog has become to much of a family pet and has got used to being treated like one ( i treat the dog as a gun dog, i MAKE it heal etc etc and does heed to me but my dad takes him out for walk and he does what he likes ) This new one will simply be a WORKING DOG all walks will be taken with me (and only me) and the moment i get it there will be sit and re-call training. Now the point of this post is...... any one recommend me a breeder in northern ireland?? Thanks Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimjim Posted September 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 heya guys he was at copperbirch for 3 weeks....... i got my dog back he was like a gray hound (skin and bone, i was eating a hot dog that evening and before i got a bite of it the dog had jumped up snapped it from my hand, luckily it was my hand and not a childs, the man had starved him!! :look: ) and to tell you the truth it was me teaching him how to heel.... to stay etc etc so what did i pay for him to do for 3 weeks?? very very disappointed with him! I was taking him back over an evening a week for a few weeks, and things were looking up he was more in tuned in me etc, was told he would get in touch with me within 2 weeks to arrange another session.... last i heard from him I have ordered few books, dvd, and going to apply to the Gundog Club to do there course's myself so i would be fit to train my next one myself Thanks dazza that would be great!!
